GlennGould is a semi-annual magazine that offers an amazing view into the world of the legendary Canadian pianist, writer, composer, and broadcaster Glenn Gould (1932-1982). The magazine will intrigue you with never-before-published texts by Gould—essays, scripts for radio and television, program notes, lectures, interviews, humour, and so on, as well as letters, diaries, and other private writings.

The magazine publishes a wide range of articles about Gould, too, as well as articles that touch only indirectly on Gould but deal with issues that were important to him or that broaden our understanding of his life, work, and thought. The magazine also offers documentary history in the form of reprinted reviews, profiles, and other biographical texts from Gould’s own lifetime, and offers reviews of new books, recordings, broadcasts, conferences, and so on—keeping track of the expanding industry around Gould.

Every issue is overflowing with photographs and facsimiles of concert programs, album covers, compositional manuscripts, workings papers, juvenilia, and other archival documents.
